The New England Patriots defense has been sensational, scoring more points than the opposing offense in two of the last three games. That’s right: the Patriots defense scored a touchdown against the Carolina Panthers in Week 9 and the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11 — and neither opponent scored more than six points. The offense could’ve taken the day off.

We also shared a hot take on why quarterback Mac Jones seems to haved struggled when the Patriots have the lead like he did against the Falcons. That’s near the end of the podcast. Listen up.
